Quote by Rivers Solomon

“There was no church, no philosophy, no school of thought, no nothing that could be trusted in full. To believe too much in anything was to sacrifice your faculties. The only way forward was to embrace the tussle of it all. Born with a seething righteousness, Vern looked down on anyone les willing or able to put up a fight than she was.”
